Texasquilts-that looks fabulous! I have the border on your's ready to stitch on. Pictures soon....I'll have to wait to sew until tomorrow (Friday). Tonight we get to meet up with my Aunt, Uncle and cousin for a dinner out. Yeah! No cooking, no dishes :lol:

Janstar, I'm sure you are talking about the leaf fabric that I used on SazuBmidlands center- Group 4. I'll attach a pic just to make sure. But...I do love it! It is "Shades of the Season" Screen Print D# 7790 by Robert Kaufman. I need to go buy some more for myself from my shop before it is all gone !

The fabric described in the message is the outer leaf fabric

Texasquilts, that border is perfect for that round! It is beautiful!

Janstar 02-26-2009 07:35 PM

Thanks Pat. That's the one . Where did you buy it? I'll look on the net and hopefully I'll find some. You know how it is when you make up your mind about something.

sandpat 02-27-2009 05:36 AM

Janstar...I bought it from my LQS...they don't have an internet store, but I'm sure if they still have some, they would love to mail it to you...(tell them Patti from Middleton told you about it) Their web addy is http://sewmanyideas.com/ Good luck!

Janstar 02-27-2009 12:01 PM

Patti, I tried to e-mail them and couldn't get anything with that address. I found some on e-quilter but it had a black background and it was'nt a nice as yours. I want the light background. I'll try calling them. Thanks so much for your help!

Janstar 02-27-2009 12:10 PM

OK, You just have to be smarter than the computer, NOT, it went through Patti. I'm just waiting to see if they have any left. Thanks again!

sandpat 02-27-2009 03:37 PM

Oh...good luck with that Janstar...now my DH will be really disappointed it there is none left for me to buy :wink: I'm just kidding...I love it and he does too, but hey....he just got his quilt...he doesn't get another one this soon! :roll:

Texasquilts-could you hear my machine humming? I finished the border today. I don't have a very good place to do pictures so the lighting is off and it messes with the true colors but here is your peek......
Hope you like it!

I got round three finished this afternoon, will be mailing it tomorrow.
I found, what I thought to be the perfect material for the third round. Was originally planning on doing some applique but this material said "Just use me."

JANW 03-01-2009 05:49 PM

Wow, Barb that is perfect. Thanks for a great round, I love it.

barbsbus 03-01-2009 06:59 PM

I am so glad you do. I really wanted to do some kind of applique or be more fancy but the more I looked at your center I thouhgt it just needed this material for round three. I think it would be fjun to do a unique quilting pattern in it later.

2 Doods 03-01-2009 07:59 PM

barbsbus-that is really pretty. Love that fabric. I think it will look great with some pretty quilting too.

Hope I get a peek at my center soon :lol: It is fun to watch them all progress.

sandpat 03-02-2009 05:17 AM

Barb, I know what you mean about it telling you to use it. Its nice that you obeyed...it is really the perfect addition!

mary quite contrary 03-05-2009 05:26 AM

Bump

I think we have 10 days left to mail our next round. Hopefully we are all still on schedule.

They are all looking really good.

tlrnhi 03-05-2009 05:30 AM

I have yours Mary. I thought what I had planned for it was a good idea until I actually DID it. Nope! Doesn't look good. Back to the drawing board again. Hope to have it done over the weekend. I have dedicated the weekend to sewing,,,,well, we have the fashion show on Sunday afternoon/early evening, but that's only 4 hours.
I'll get this bugger done! :)

Awww heck...you still have plenty of time....as long as you have plenty of fabric!! :lol:

tlrnhi 03-05-2009 05:56 AM

Oh no Patti, gotta have it out by the 15th. It's going to you! :)
Then you can work your magic on it!
I do think I have the problem solved. I just had to add another color in there. Courtney approves of it, so I guess it's good now. lol

TEXASQUILTS 03-05-2009 06:22 PM

Any clues on what headed my way next I would like to start looking for
fabric and idea for next round. .

mary quite contrary 03-06-2009 04:46 AM

I think you should be getting mine. I haven't seen it in a while.

mary quite contrary 03-06-2009 02:20 PM

I received Texasquilts from 2Doods today.

It is really really nice.

2 Doods 03-06-2009 09:25 PM

Oh good it made it before the weekend. I'm sure it will be happy with you where it is warmer-we are suppose to get more snow starting Saturday....if we could have enough to snow us in so I could stay home and sew....yeah, I'd like that :lol: A few days off work! Think Snow! :lol:
